(G) When I got older, losing my hair. Not too long ago
(D) Little did I know I’d also spill my food.
(D) People here do (G) not treat me rude.
(G) Now it just hurts whenever I walk. (G7) Both my back and (C) feet
(Cm) I know I’m older,  (G) I think I (E7) told her.
I’m (A) not yet (D) sixty (G) four

(G) I could be happy – sit in my chair. Never cut the lawn
(D) All the staff that works here takes good care of me
(D) They cook my food, and (G) they plant the trees
(G) They do the weeding, I sit and drink
(G7) in the Bistro (C) Bar
(Cm) I just can’t do it – so (G) I’ll sit right  (E7) through it
(A) Not yet (D) sixty (G) four

BREAK

(Em) Only days remain until I reach my celebration (D) day,
Then it will be clear (Em)
(Am) I’ll be older too (Em)  (Am) Ahhhh.
One year till (Dm) Medicare (C) I will (D) count the (G) days.

BREAK (D7)

(G) I planned a birthday – a fantastic display
But I can’t recall
(D) What it is exactly that I’d organized
So (D) I’ll take a nap, and (G) then when I rise.

(G) I’ll look for notes I wrote down before (G7)
Maybe then I’ll (C) know.
(Cm) I’m glad that I’m here. (G) I’m glad that (E7) you’re here

All (A) over (D) sixty (G) four

Ending chords:  (A)  (D)  (G)  (A)
